As above commenter, not sure of the gettable mileage, but 1.8 drove me insane with the stuttering. 1.7.10 was a fallback but now all the servers are 1.8. Damn! I purged all java, and wiped every trace of minecraft, before reinstalling just minecraft 1.8.4. It started up with default settings and worked great! No more freezes. I changed some defaults and the dreaded constant freezing returned! Trial and error pinpointed my issue to FullScreen.
Options->Video Settings->Fullscreen must be ON(it is on by default), or the game is unplayable. idk why, but there it is...
